American Multinationals in Europe

Managing Employment Relations across National Borders

Edited by Phil Almond and Anthony Ferner

Description

This book addresses some of the major contemporary issues in comparative business and employment relations. At its core are the findings of a four-year exploration of the management of employment relations in American multinational companies in the UK, Germany, Ireland, and Spain. Specifically, it looks at what is distinctively "American" about US multinationals and their management of human resources across national borders.
